Had to reinstall the Mailman port (not pkg) on a FreeBSD 10.3-RELEASE

Several other packages also required rebuild to point to new shared objects.

The Mailman build failed, saying 'dnspython not found' even though that
port is installed:

root@mail:/usr/ports/mail/mailman # pkg info | grep dnspython
py27-dnspython-1.12.0          DNS toolkit for Python

I don't think that doesn't say whether it was installed from port or pkg.

FWIW, ports and packages don't always play nice together and many will say never to mix then (I do). It sounds like the Makefile is failing. On my current freebsd system, I installed mailman from source, not from the port, and don't recall any weird problems. All I can say is it's working for me.

Also, Mark's import test will tell you whether it's really there but it won't tell you about paths. My ports tree isn't up to date, but it's checking PYTHON_PKGNAMEPREFIX which comes from /usr/ports/Mk/Uses/python.mk.

The fix -may- be as simple as uninstalling python2-2_3.
